Atkins Commercial

Our imaginations are endless, and scary! We were determined to lose weight on the Atkins Diet, and we were going to document everything. We learned that Atkins had some yummy diet bars we could enjoy. When we went shopping for them, there were other brands of bars there too that we decided to buy and compare the tastes. By the time we got home, we had a Walmart grocery bag FULL of protein bars. We set the table with crystal wine glasses, moms idear to "cleanse the palate"between bites. Now, you have to know mom. She tries so hard to come across polished and proper, but we know the truth! However, the faces she makes, as a proper snobby type with her nose in the air and a serious look on her face, just cracked me up! My children had the camcorder on as we introduced each protein bar. We would cut two bite size pieces out of it and try it at the same time. Some were good and some were downright awful! I distinctly remember one that mom said she wouldn't feed to inmates! Not even with mustard on it! And another one she said tasted like bellybutton! Most of them were tasty. But between bites we would cleanse the palate. Mom had an extremely gooey one in her mouth when she said, "And now... we shall cleanse the palate," and as she lifted the glass to her face, she was making a face using her tongue to get some of the sticky goo off her teeth, and then took a sip of water. When her mouth was good and full, she started swishing so hard it sounded like a washing machine on high spin! Then she rolled her lips under, showing the whites of her front teeth as she swished! A few bites later, she tried to sip her water the same way but she noticed everyone looking at her after she took her sip, and as she started to swish she started to laugh and sort of choke, and all that water shot out of her nose!! And yes, we do have this on tape!!!! It is taking me long to type this because I am laughing so hard I am crying and can't see to type!
